"attempted statutory sodomy with a person less than 12 years old"

Why is there even an age requirement for this? WTF?

Read carefully ... It's two separate charges.

is charged with first-degree attempted sodomy, and attempted statutory sodomy with a person less than 12 years old,

He's getting dinged for attempted sodomy, with an additional ding for trying it on a victim under 12yo.

As bad as the age requirement is, an attack on a single digit aged child should be execution.
